Sunny Day = Playing at Park

We finally had a sunny day and daddy had the day off, so we spent some time at the park. This was our first time to check out this park and Jeremiah loved it. It was so easy for him to manuevar around the park independently, so he had a great time doing things by himself. We have been working on tackling stairs and it has been hard for him because stairs are different heights wherever you go. Well, at this park, they had very short stairs and bars he could hold onto to climb up by himself. He was very proud of himself the first time he did it and I would have to say that mommy and daddy were proud too. The slide is his favorite thing to do, but he also loves the swings.

Baby #2 Update - 32 weeks

Hi! I just thought I would take time today to give everyone an update on how things are going with my second pregnancy and baby #2. We are doing great and the baby is receiving good reports each time I go to the doctor. I'm now seeing my regular OB every two weeks and that will probably change to once a week at the beginning of March. My doctor is having me go to the hospital every two weeks to monitor the baby's heartbeat and do an ultrasound to check on the baby. There is nothing wrong, but this is just a precaution. They had to take Jeremiah early because he began to show signs of distress caused by lack of space, so my doctor is just being cautious. I go back to my specialist in St. Louis on Thursday and that should be my last appointment with him. We have set a date for the csection and that should take place on Tuesday, March 20th. It is nice to have a date, but I learned with Jeremiah that date really does not mean a thing. We had his set for August 19th and he came on August 15th, but we do know the baby will be here on or before March 20th.

Christmas in MS & Playing in Snow

We were able to travel down to Mississippi on New Years day, so we could spend some time with our families. We had Christmas with my family and Jeremiah got a lot of goodies from his grandparents, aunts and uncles. We had a great time visiting with everyone.

You can't see his face, but he was so excited about Mrs. Potato head


Favorite toy of the day....Woody


This was our second snow of the season and it stayed around long enough for daddy to be able to play in it with us one day. Jeremiah has always had this strong dislike of snow....he never wanted to touch it, step in it or even cared to look at it. I think we are on a road of tolerance now and hopefully one day he will love it like his daddy loves it. We actually got him to go outside and play in it for five minutes. I knew I had to take pictures fast because it wasn't going to last long. His favorite part was being able to pick it up and throw it at us.
